They discontinued a lift and cut line, and replaced it with another option that R' Dovid Feinstien recommends.
Care to share the name of the new line. I'm actually in the market for a new shaver, this info will be helpful.

Try the norelco 3100. I thought the entire power touch series didn't come with lift and cut, but that doesn't seem to be the case.
Who do you think you are fooling? You think you are going to pull a quick one on your Creator? Good luck with that.

Isn't there an issue if it cuts below the skin? Not sure if that's the case here anyway

The issue as mentioned before, Is it a scissor or razor like motion so the machlokes is if the lifters actually lift the hair enough to make it a razor like motion or not

The 3100 is otherwise OK?

There are reliable poskim that say it's ok? Not arguing with you, just trying to clarify.

The 3100 is the highest model in the power touch series that doesn't come with lift and cut. I think it's ok out of the box, but please don't take my word for it.

I am sometimes accused of overthinking things. I am still mulling over whether that accusation has merit.

$24.99 on Amazon for the norelco 2100. I think it's kosher out of the box, but don't trust me.
